After Action Report

In Atlanta, the Heat downed the Hawks 120-102. The tempo dragged the Hawks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Heat's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Heat ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Heat bench chemistry carried them. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Heat · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
